Welcome from the Minister
Welcome! We are the Quimper Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, an independent, self-governing congregation in association with the Unitarian Universalist Association that has a liberal religious history in the United States going back to the early 1800's. Our forebears include Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, and Clara Barton. We named ourselves the Quimper Fellowship to welcome persons from the entire Quimper Peninsula and beyond.
Our approach in religion is based on a "covenant of practice" rather than a shared creed. As Francis David, a Unitarian from the 1600's, said, "We need not think alike to love alike."
Our congregation, begun in 1976 by a small group of people meeting monthly in a home in Port Hadlock, now meets each Sunday in Port Townsend in an inviting sanctuary built by our own hands on San Juan Avenue. To meet the needs of a growing membership numbering nearly 300 persons, we are in the process of building a new sanctuary, kitchen, and office spaces that we anticipate occupying in January 2010.
Do take a look at our website; it should give you a very good sense of who are. We intentionally welcome all persons who seek to deepen the life of the spirit.
Services at 9:15am and 11:15am are held from the first Sunday after Labor Day through the second Sunday of June. Religious education for children, infant through eighth grade, takes place at the 9:15am service. During the summer months a single service is held at 10am. High school youth meet on Sunday evening evenings from 6-8pm.
Please join us, the door is always open
